Bangalore:
Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president Mayawati on Sunday addressed a
rally at Palace Ground here and appealed to party workers and supporters
to expand its mass base in southern states. Accusing regional parties,
the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of ignoring people
from Scheduled Castes (SCs), Scheduled Tribes (SCs), Other Backward
Classes (OBCs) and religious minorities, Mayawati asked party workers to
unite and engage these people under the BSP banner.

Mayawati also
accused the UPA Government of failing to contain the problems of people
belonging to the lower caste and minority communities. She urged the
people to support and elect the BSP in upcoming general elections and
state assembly elections. She said that her party should aim to
establish itself in Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Puducherry.
She highlighted the need for removing the Congress at the Centre and the
BJP in Karnataka, for their anti-poor and anti-Dalit policies. BSP
office bearers in Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Puducherry, Kerala and
Karnataka were also present at the rally.

Mayawati hits out Congress for non development of SCs, STs, OBcs

Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) Supremo Mayawati today accused the
Congress of subserving the interests of scheduled castes, scheduled
tribes and other backward classes, forcing them to turn to insurgency.
Addressing a South Zone convention of the BSP here she said ‘despite
ruling the nation for maximum number of years after independence, the
Congress has failed to alleviate poverty and unemployment among the SCs,
STs and the OBCs, resulting in many of them becoming naxalites or
taking to the wrong path’. Even the tribals who had been residing for
years together on forest lands, were being dislocated and their lands
being encroached upon and sold to big business houses for a song he said
accusing the Congress of playing into big corporate houses. The
former UP Chief Minister said the Congress had not been able to bring
about any change in the ’societal status or financial status of the SCs,
STs and the OBCs’. She alleged that new rules were being framed
every other day by the Congress party to ‘destroy the reservation’
given to the above classes under the Constitution. While on one
hand there is no increase in the reservation quota, inclusion of other
castes under this quota has diluted the this provision given to the
backward classes, Mayawati said. She said BSP as a party is also
concerned about the poor among the upper castes and religious minorities
and had written to the centre seeking reservation for them (in
education and employment), for which it received no response. UNI VK VV

Bangalore: BSP supremo
Mayawati on Sunday alleged that the “failure” of Congress to alleviate
poverty and unemployment among the SCs, STs and OBCs has driven many to
Naxalism.

“Despite ruling the nation for maximum number of years since
Independence, Congress has failed to alleviate poverty and unemployment
among the SCs, STs and the OBCs, resulting in many of them becoming
Naxalites or taking the wrong path,” she told BSP’s South Zone
convention here.

The former Uttar Pradesh chief minister said, the Congress has not been
able to bring about any change in the “societal or financial status” of
these sections.

Blaming Congress for playing in the hands of corporates, she said,
tribals were being dislocated from their traditional dwellings in
forest, their lands encroached upon and sold to big business houses “for
a song”.

“Instead of appeasing the corporate houses, the government should evolve policies benefitting the common man,” she said.

She also accused the Congress of “destroying” reservations provided to
the SCs, STs and BCs under the Constitution. Inclusion of other castes
under the reservation quota has diluted this provision, she claimed.

Noting that the BSP was concerned about the poor among upper castes and
religious minorities, she said, the Centre has also not responded to
their pleas for reservation.

Mayawati said, “wrong policies” of the Congress and the BJP during
their respective rules have led to the present state of affairs in the
country, including rise in corruption.

Urging upon party workers to unite and bring the BSP to power at the
Centre and in the states, “which is necessary for the overall
development of not only the SCs, STs and the OBCs, but also religious
minorities and the poor in upper castes,” Mayawati also supported the
demand for a separate Telangana state.

Mayawati takes on Congress, BJP on inflation, poverty and unemployment

Lashing out at the Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over
their ‘anti-people’ and ‘pro-corporate’ policies, Bahujan Samaj Party
(BSP) president Mayawati on Sunday said that the UPA Government at the
Centre and BJP Government in Karnataka have failed to address the
problems of the common people.

Addressed a party rally here at
Palace Ground here, Mayawati said: “Inflation, poverty and unemployment
are at all time high at present due to the anti-people and pro-corporate
policies of the UPA Government like FDI in retail sector. And the poor
and middle class people are the worst affected by such policies. BSP has
been consistently opposing such policies rasing voice in support of the
people belonging from marginalized sections of the society.”

“The
UPA Government and the BJP Government in Karnataka have failed to meet
the people’s expectations, and now, the time has arrived to vote them
out from both places. The Centre has introduced the Direct Cash Transfer
Scheme, but it is also not going to benefit the poor people, because
the government is not serious about them,” she added.

BSP supremo
appealed to all the party workers, supporters and office bearers from
Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Puducherry, Kerala and Karnataka to gear up
for the upcoming general election and state assembly polls. (ANI)

VOICE OF SARVAJAN

Satish Chandra Mishraji and Ms mayawatiji were correct in projecting the BSP as a party of Entire people which is for peace, welfare and happiness for the entire society. BSP will emerge as the only alternative for Congress and the BJP which propagates casteism and communalism to divide the society.

Ashis Nandy should be arrested immediately: Mayawati

New Delhi: BSP chief
Mayawati on Saturday demanded that Rajasthan government should
immediately send author Ashis Nandy to jail over his controversial
remarks at Jaipur Literary Festival that “most corrupt people come from
OBC, SC and ST communities”.

Speaking at a panel discussion in Jaipur, Nandy stoked a major row
with his comments that people belonging to OBC, SC and ST communities
were the “most corrupt”.

Calling Nandy’s remarks as “farthest from truth, condemnable,
unfortunate and reflective of a casteist mindset”, Mayawati said Nandy
should immediately tender an apology.

“He should seek an apology from these sections of the population
immediately and our party strongly condemns it. Our party also demands
that Rajasthan government should immediately file a case under the SC/ST
Act and other stringent sections and send him to jail,” Mayawati told
reporters here referring to Nandy’s remark.

“Otherwise, people could even be compelled to get out on the roads in protest against these remarks,” she added.

Mayawati said the comments by Nandy seemed to have been made under a “well thought-out scheme to defame these sections”.

The BSP chief also asked the organisers of the Jaipur Literary Festival to expel Nandy from the event.

When one of the reporters asked Mayawati about the next step that
she intended to take in the matter, the BSP supremo said “we are
watching the response of Rajasthan government and whether the organisers
have expelled Nandy. And in what manner Nandy seeks an apology, we will
take that also with seriousness before taking any step,” she said.

To a question about certain remarks he attributed to UP minister Azam
Khan asking girls not to become like Mayawati, she said Azam Khan was
known to make various kinds of remarks but she did not take them
seriously.

Sheila Dikshit faces BSP councillor’s ire

Delhi Chief Minister
Sheila Dikshit today fended off a BSP councillor when she came close to
her and created ruckus at a function by storming the dais.

Councillor Priyanka Gautam disrupted Dikshit’s speech at the function in
Kondli area of East Delhi and shouted slogans against the Chief
Minister for not being “invited” to event though she was an elected
representative of the area.

Dikshit first tried to pacify Gautam but she fended off her when the
councillor got close to her shouting slogans. She was also asking
Dikshit why there was no seat for her in the dais.

The Chief Minister, who was speaking after inaugurating a community
centre, expressed regret to the councillor on behalf of the organisers
but Gautam did not relent.

Later, a number of supporters of Gautam showed black flags to Dikshit and even clashed with Congress supporters
